 | The goal of the Community Sediment Transport Modeling System (CSTMS) was to produce an open-source model that couples hydrodynamics (circulation and waves), sediment transport, and morphodynamics. The model is intended to be used as both a research tool and for practical applications. An accurate and useful model requires coupling sediment-transport with hydrodynamic forcing and stratigraphic evolution. Ultimately, the modeling system will consist of interoperable modules, conforming to a community-accepted standard ... |

|
| The long-term objective of our research is to quantify the structure of turbulence in fluvial and estuarine environments, in order to develop remote-sensing tools for environmental assessment as well as to improve numerical simulations. The objectives of this program were: (1) to quantify the turbulence length scale and turbulent dynamics in an estuary under varying stratification conditions and geometries, including relatively uniform boundary-layer flows and highly disrupted wake flow conditions; ... |

|
 | The objectives of our 2008-2009 research program are: to quantify the influence of barotropic (tidal) convergence on the lower Skagit tidal flats as a mechanism of sediment trapping and creation of ephemeral mud and sand deposits; to determine the role of density fronts in creating and transporting high-concentration sediment suspensions, and assess the influence of these processes on sediment deposition and short-term morphological change; to distinguish the influence of wave-induced ... |
